Leeds allow defender Cody Drameh to join Birmingham City on loan and are in talks with Roma over a £4m deal for winger Ola Solbakken

Leeds United have let defender Cody Drameh join Championship rivals Birmingham City on loan amid a host of arrivals at Elland Road.

The 21-year-old right back has previously enjoyed loan spells at Luton Town and Cardiff City.

Drameh was taken off at half-time of the recent 4-3 win at Ipswich Town despite only being introduced as a 24th-minute substitute, and has been allowed to leave to create space in Daniel Farke’s squad.

Leeds are currently locked in talks with Roma over a £4million deal for Norwegian winger Ola Solbakken.

The 24-year-old was part of the Bodo/Glimt that upset the odds to win back-to-back Norwegian titles in 2020 and 2021, and he also has interest from Olympiacos.

Leeds’ transfer business has stepped up in recent days, with the loan signing of Tottenham’s Djed Spence sealed on Thursday.

Farke has since added Bulgarian midfielder Ilia Gruev to his squad having agreed a £4million deal with Werder Bremen.

Rangers midfielder Glen Kamara has also completed a move to Elland Road, arriving for £6million.

Leeds had been bracing themselves to lose the talented pair of Luis Sinisterra and Willy Gnonto after both refused to play earlier in the summer in the hope of leaving the club.

They have now returned to the first-team picture, and it remains to be seen whether either will secure a move before Friday’s 11pm transfer deadline.

The Yorkshire club will be looking to build on last weekend’s win at Portman Road when they take on Sheffield Wednesday on Saturday.
